Ex-MP reveals surprise career move a year after leaving Parliament

Former SNP MP Mhairi Black is set to make her television acting debut in a new BBC legal drama. She will portray a police detective, Detective Inspector Bridges, in the eight-part series titled Counsels. The drama is currently filming in Glasgow and is scheduled to air on BBC One and the BBC iPlayer. Ms Black is slated to appear in four episodes, with her filming commitments commencing next week. Having stepped down as an MP in 2024, she expressed enthusiasm for exploring new opportunities outside of politics.
